Re: Project ~ stock floored on 22s

yeah idk i like the zq8 wheels and even those are sadly out of my budget. for now i have some ideas up my sleeve that will look good and not cost me a fortune. its setup for 22's so i could just bolt on a set anytime i want to. i should be on this truck again very very soon. i will post up some pics when i get started.

Re: Project ~ stock floored on 22s

well i took some pics of it last weekend.... the one next to me is doored with a small block on 18's. it even has stock seat height from a stock floor/channel body drop. yes i know my bumper is crocked i need to re-do my horns.








also here are some pics of my bender.... unfortunitely i don't think any tubing work will make it onto this truck. more info can be found in the link below.

no but it looks completely rediculous. Most poeple are shocked when i open my door and they see how low the interior is, but that truck is to the next level.

thats cool i am just comtemplating doing something along that line. I am just kinda confused on it I guess, i thought for a channel you had to move the body mounts down. Being the truck is stock floored already you would think that there is no room to move the mounts down. Sorry again to whore i just am trying to wrap my mind around it.

Re: Project ~ stock floored on 22s

Channeling you move the mount down the amount of drop. Cut out the floor around the frame and box it up. I hate it...

ALso boxes around you frame which makes stuff a pain in the ass!

he meant that the body mounts on the frame can only be dropped like 2.5 to 3", but when you door one you have to section the bodymounts on the floor and also raise them to create a stockfloor/channel combo to get the floor to be as close to stock as possible

Re: Project ~ stock floored on 22s

Best part about Danybaggs truck is that the truck sits soooo low, and he's like 9 feet tall. it looks rad when he gets out and everyone at the show is like ' what the fooooocckkk?!!?!?!?!?"


Oh yeah, and Pat, truck looks good per usual, cant wait to see out more this year. we need to get more meets gong next season.
